Thanks for the inputs on this guys. Really helps. Duane, is DTC for Xen a web-based managed program/solution for xen? Is it downloadable with a rpm or apt-get on Ubuntu? I did an apt-get install dtc-xen and I got something installed but not sure where to start from now. Might have to read on it a bit. But wondering if it provides a web based management portal. Thanks, Bruce
